FIRM RETAINS BELIEF
IN MISSING MEMBER
Confidence of Officials of Berry
Goodwin Co. Not Shaken by
Berry's Disappearance.
Confidence In tho Intesrlty of Orlando
C. Berry, tho young contractor who dis
appeared Thursday after obtaining- cash
on it check for $1450 In Burlington, N. J.,
was expressed today by members of the
Berry-Qoodwln Company, 133 South h
street, of which he Is president, In spllo
of the fact that the police say they
have virtually abandoned the foul play
theory.
"His standing with the firm will not be
affected In the least If he can explain his
disappearance," said a member of the
company today, "livery one with whom
he wns associated tins always expressed
the highest regard tor him. We are
awaiting developments."
A mysterious letter received today by
his father. Albert Berry, Is the latest de
velopment confronting the police. The
Berry family is convinced thnt young
Berry met with foul play after being
waylaid by thugs.
The letter wns mailed in the Pennsyl
vania terminal In New York. It con
tained two blank sheets of pnper, two
time tables nnd an Identification card be
longing to young Berry, giving his nd
dress, 471 Mnnnstery nvenuc, noxborough.
Who mailed tho letter Is tho problem
which Is now pui2llng the police. It Is
thought to have been mailed by young
Berry's nssnllants.
The youns man Is the nephew of Lieu
tenant Jeifrler. of the 4th street nnd
Snyder avenue pollco station.
OBTAINS CHECK AT ROEBMNG.
Berry loft, his omco Inst Thursday
morning and went to Itocbllng, N. J.,
where ho has a contract for a public
school building. Later ho mot members
of the township Boar a of Education nnd
was hnnded the check ns part payment
on the school.
Tho news that part payment wns to be
made hnd oeeu mndo public In Itocbllng
nnd Burlington. Berry went to tho latter
town from Hoobllng. Howard Scully, an
attorney, Identified him at the Burling
ton City Loan nnd Trust Company, nnd
tho pair then wont to the postofflce,
whero Berry mailed a letter containing
$100 to his wife at Itoxborough.
The police hnvo been unablo to find
satisfactory business reasons ns to why
young Berry should havo cashed the
check Instead of turning It over to tho
office ot his firm for deposit In the reg
ular banking houso of the concern.
Checks drawn by tho Berry-Goodwin
Company two weeks ago on tho First Na
tional Bank of Camden to pay workmen
on the Roebllng construction were, In
some cases Hint havo been brought to the
attention of tho police, protested nnd re
turned unpaid.
Scully, who went to the tniBt company
with Berry at tho latter's request and
Identified him, said today that Berry de
clared, as ho departed with him nfter
leaving the bank, that ho wns going to
Trenton on the next train. Whether ho
actually boarded this train tho pollco havo
beon unable to learn. As far as business
associates know, thero was no business
of the firm that cnlled him to Trenton.
Scully said Berry, after obtaining tho
check Thursday afternoon, had reached
Burlington on the 2:45 westbound trolley.
He went at once to the bank, nfter re
questing Scully to accompany htm.
PHILADELPHIA POLICE ON CASE.
Stato Detective Ellis Parker, Deputy
Sheriff Joseph Fleetwood and Patrolman
George Miller, assigned to tho caso by
Mayor Mount, aro co-operating with the
police of thlB city In seeking further
traces of Berry.
The police Bey they have learned Berry
also sent a telegram to his wlfo, but nt
their home, 471 Monastery avenue, Itox
borough, Mrs. Borry said she did not re
ceive this. She did get the special do
llvery registered letter containing tho
money, with n noto asking her to Inform
her husband'rt offico that he had re
ceived a check. When her husband did
not get homo thnt night she notified Al
bert Berry, his fnthcr, and Ernest Berry,
his brother, who also Ilvo in Itoxborough.
Tho father and brother went to Burling
ton and conducted a search that lasted
until Sunday. They found no trace of
the young contractor and notified tho
police. Their reason for not doing this
sooner was the feeling thnt Berry, who
Is powerfully built, could take care of
himself in almost any emergency. When
last seen Berry wore a light blue suit
with a pin stripe, a straw hat and black
shoes. He had a gold watcn oearinn nis
monogram Initials and a small knife
charm attached to the chain. He is 27
years old.

Government Unearths Frauds
Surpassing Those of Noto
rious "Whisky Ring."
WASHINGTON, Juno 14. Oleomar
garine frauds thnt havo cost tho Gov
ernment moro In lost tnxes than tho
whisky tax frauds have been unearthed
by national agents. It wns learned to
day. The whlaky frauds nveraged 2,000.
OOu a yenr for many years until the ac
tivity of tho Internal revenue officers In
the last year frightened tho suspected
distillers Into Inactivity, while the amount
which the Government expects to recover
in tho present Investigation will multiply
that largo sum many fold.
It has becomo known that the Govern
ment already has recovered sovernl hun
dred thousand dollars from frnrJulent
dealers In olcomargnrlno In addition to
tho largo sums collected by court proceed
ings. In fact, It Is declared moro haB been
recovered without bringing suit thnn lins
been tho caso where court nctton hns
been necessary.
What this menns, It Is stated. In tho
light of tho JC10.CO0 recently awarded tho
Government by the Fedcrnl Court at
Columbus, O., In Its proceedings against
tho Capitol City Dairy Company and
tho additional $ 100,000 being sought from
thnt lame concern by tho Government,
Is that the frauds have aggregated mnny
millions of dollars.
A revelation of the extent of tho
crooked work Is promised when tho
Government's cases against ccrtnln
Ithodo Island denlers begins next week.
This will not bo the Inst of such prosecu
tions, it is said.
Tho olcomargnrlno frauds aro under
stood to differ from tho whisky frnuds.
In their perpetration connlvnnco with
revenue depnrtment employes Is not
necessary. Thero Is lacking, too, the
political angle of the whisky cases. Tho
dealers' method of operation hns been
simple. Tho tax on uncolorcd oleo
margarine Is lA cent a pound; on colored
oleomargarine 10 cents a pound. Tho of
fending oleomargarine dealer colors his
product and sells It for butter, saving
8$i cents per pound.

Stahl's Affidavit False
NEW YOIHC, June It. Agents of the
Department of Justice who have been in
vestigating the allegations that the Lusl
tanla carried guns, this afternoon branded
as an amazing fabrication the affidavit
of Gustav Stahl, the German reservist,
who swore he saw four six-Inch guns
on the Cunarder. Stahl's statement said
ho saw the artillery when he carried tho
trunk ot Neal J. Leach, a Lusltania
steward, abroad the liner. The secret
service men say Stahl never took tho
trunk oboard the steamship because
Leach's mink Is now In possession of
the Government, and never left his
former boarding house until they took
charge of It. It was ascertained, how
ever, that Stahl and Leach were ac

OF STAHL
HAS BROTHER HERE
Hardenberg, Witness in Lusi
tanla Affidavit's Case, Traced
Through Philadelphia Kin.
It developed today that Ilelnz Harden'
berg, wanted In connection with the affi
davits setting forth that the Lusltania
was armed when she sailed from New
York on her fateful voyagchas a brother
living in this city. According to a mem
bor of the Department of Justice, sta
tioned in this city, llardenberg's brother
Is Fred Hardenberg, of 16IJ North Broad
street.
Hardenberg, tho brother of Hclns
Hardenberg, was sweeping the floor nt
1613 North Urond street today, when ho
admitted his identity to . representative
of the Hvenino LEDOEn. The North
Broad street nculress Is tho headquarters
of tho Deutsches House, a gathering place
for German singing societies.
"Tes, 1 am n brother of Heinz Harden
berg," said Hardenberg, "but further
than that I havo nothing to say. You
must leave me alone and not ask me
any further questions."
Hardenberg Is a waiter. It was learned
today several agents of the Department
of Justice havo been watching the North
Broad Btrcct address for several days.
It was reported today that Hardenberg
lived In Hoboken nt tho same house
whero Stahl, tho original nfTldavlt maker,
resided He Is also said to have lived
with Btahl at tho time that he claims
to have been aboard tho Lusltania. Thero
was a report today that Hnrdenberg, who
Uvea here, will be subpoenaed before the
Federal Grand Jury in New York and tell
what he knows about Stahl. Efforts will
also be made by tho Government to
prove, through him, that Stahl never
was aboaid tho Lusltania.
Heinz Hardenberg was taken In chargo
by Secret Service Agents In Cincinnati
whllo In tho General I'ostotflce of that
city. He was waiting for mall from
his brother In this city. Hardenberg U
not under arrest. Ho willingly accom
panied tho Secret Service Agents to New
York, wheru ho la scheduled to appear
boforo the Federal Grand Jury. Tho af
fidavits which resulted In Hardenberg'B
visit to Cincinnati being brought to a
sudden cud wcro made by Gustav Stahl.
Hardenberg and Stahl aro friends, ac
cording to Department of Justice agents.
They lived several weeks In tho same
houso in Hoboken and subqucntly at 20
Lo Hoy street, tho nddrcss given by Stnhl
when ho signed tho affadavlt In which he
stated that ho saw four guns on tho
Lusltania. Friends of both men stato
that they knew Lench, the steward, who
Is said by Stahl to havo conducted him
aboard the ship as sho lay at tho pier
In New York.
William II. Offlcy, superintendent of
tho New York Offico of the Investigation
Bureau of tho Department of Justice,
stated last night that ho has positive
evidence that Stahl never was aboard
the vessel and that his affidavit was in
spired and paid for by German sympa
thizers. It Is thought by Mr. Offlcy that Stahl,
finding that ho would not be permitted
to board tho Lusltania, nnd needing
money badly which ho would bo paid for
It, decided to "take a chance" and made
tho affidavit on a venture.
The whole scheme, according to In
vestigators, was clumsily planned nnd
clues are easily found. The Investiga
tion ot the Grand Jury will be con
tinued toduy. It was said that 10 or more
witnesses will be examined and that
nearly 1W are available.
Baptists Will Hold Tent Services
Tent service! will bo conducted through

mediately following this, Director Meigs
Issued advertisements requesting propos
als for dredging the site of the pier
preparatory to starting construction of
Its substructure.
This will be the first of tho group of
10 largo piers forming the main project
for the development of a really modern
port.
Tho pier will cost approximately
Jl.oOO.CXO, and tho entire group, with the
car storago yards and other facilities
necessarily appurtenant to tho piers, will
eventually Involvo the expenditure of up
ward of 23,000,COO. This Is by far the
largest slnglo concentrated expenditure of
any kind ever undertaken by the city,
and the commencement of work on this
pier will bo tho first step In tho upbuild
ing of our maritime commerce.
In addition to bids for dredging, ad
vertisements were nlso issued requesting
proposals for tho rorooflng of municipal
piers at the foot of Chestnut nnd Race
streets, and for the construction of a

engaged In a campaign to get more gunn

Benator Humbert waa sent to Uie United
States as an agent tor the French Oct.

quired an areenal that would be equal to
the great Krupp plant at Eeiftt and road
a bid on behalf of France for control of
me uemienem Bteel WorJte.
Mr. Schwab, accbrdlng to it. Humbert's
narrative, told htm that he might put tho
entire resources of the Bethlehem works
v me uuposai or tn French Govern
nient At the samo time Mr. Schwab
Intimated that he expected a JlOO.COo.tioo
caah ofter for the work on behalf of.

As Humbert was about to tall from

and expressed regret at Senator Hum

that we have contributed In some way,
however small, toward helping your great
and beautiful country, which we Amerl
cans who have lived so much In Franc
havo learned to love nad admire."

You know that
you can't judge
a book
by its cover
Q And you may have
found out that you must
wear a Suit; of Clothes a
while to test its claims to
an easy and stylish fit,
cool comfort, and endur
ing service.
G, Next to your own per
sonal experience is that of
a friend.
T,When he says to you:
"This Perry Suit is the fin
est I ever wore," you may
ignore the special plea of
any Cicero "Pro Domo
Sua."
'" '("My fid Latin Lexicon,
dear' Thank you")
,"1 don't need a Suit
really," said, a man here at
Perry's the other day,
"but when I saw the Suit
you sold my brother for
$15, I thought I'd better
come for one myself before
they're all gone."
C Write this on your cuff
today! You can't afford
to put your good money
into a Summer Suit until
you have at least seen
Perry's!
T.The more so, if your
figure is hard to fit, your
taste in 'clothing hard to
please!
